Let $\mathbb R_{>0}$ be the set of positive real numbers. Determine all functions $f \colon \mathbb R_{>0} \to \mathbb R_{>0}$ such that \[x \big(f(x) + f(y)\big) \geqslant \big(f(f(x)) + y\big) f(y)\]for every $x, y \in \mathbb R_{>0}$.

Let $a$, $b$ and $c$ be pairwise distinct nonnegative real numbers. Prove that
\[
(a + b + c) \left( \frac{a}{(b - c)^2} + \frac{b}{(c - a)^2} + \frac{c}{(a - b)^2} \right) > 4.

Erasing the difference of two numbers

Consider the following game for a positive integer $n$. Initially, the numbers $1, 2, \ldots, n$ are written on a board. In each move, two numbers are selected such that their difference is also present on the board. This difference is then erased from the board. (For example, if the numbers $3,6,11$ and $17$ are on the board, then $3$ can be erased as $6 - 3=3$, or $6$ as $17 - 11=6$, or $11$ as $17 - 6=11$.)

For which values of $n$ is it possible to end with only one number remaining on the board?

4 wise men and 100 hats. 3 must guess their numbers

There are four wise men in a row, each sees only those following him in the row, i.e. the $1$st sees the other three, the $2$nd sees the $3$rd and $4$th, and the $3$rd sees only the $4$th. The devil has $100$ hats, numbered from $1$ to $100$, he puts one hat on each wise man, and hides the extra $96$ hats. After that, each wise man (in turn: first the first, then the second, etc.) loudly calls a number, trying to guess the number of his hat. The numbers mentioned should not be repeated. When all the wise men have spoken, they take off their hats and check which one of them has guessed. Can the sages to act in such a way that at least three of them knowingly guessed?

Let \(a \geq b \geq c \geq 0\) be real numbers such that \(ab + bc + ca = 3\).
Prove that:
\[
3 + (2 - \sqrt{3}) \cdot \frac{(b-c)^2}{b+(\sqrt{3}-1)c} \leq a+b+c
\]and determine all the cases when the equality occurs.

In a scalene triangle $ABC$, let $M$ be the midpoint of side $BC$. Let the line perpendicular to $AC$ at point $C$ intersect $AM$ at $N$. If $(BMN)$ is tangent to $AB$ at $B$, find $AB/MA$.
